High frequency wide beam PVDF ultrasonic projector for underwater communications

This work describes the development and characterization of a wide beam and wideband ultrasonic transducer, designed as an emitter for underwater communications up to 1.5 MHz. The active element being used is composed of two layers of 110 mu m PVDF (Polyvinylidene fluoride) film, with NiCu electrode...
